It's been everywhere for the last few days. Even my DM asked about it because she'd seen it trending on Twitter and I was lost for words for what to tell her. It's just stupid and embarassing, I'm sure the poor girl is mortified about it at this point.

What a ridiculous comment. You don't have to be "prudish" to find this behaviour annoying. It's just demeaning to all women.

I don’t feel demeaned because a woman I don’t know pretended to spit on a dick- why would I? It doesn’t affect me at all

Not seen it but it does sound like it sums up "romance" in 2024.

As a colleague (male) said at work today, how have we come from romance being "shall I compare thee to a summer's day" to "hauk tuah". It's sad IMO.

Yet the young people I work with think it is funny.
